DNA should be taken from babies (to fight crime) by DesertRat662006-12-13 10:23:58
  I like the honesty by varikin2006-12-13 10:47:00
    Shouldn't even be up for discussion IMO by DesertRat662006-12-13 10:51:01
      *blinks* by subbywan2006-12-13 10:53:00
        How about by DesertRat662006-12-13 10:55:26
          They already ID you at birth. by subbywan2006-12-13 10:57:48
            Not always by DesertRat662006-12-13 10:59:38
              But it's still fairly common, even if not by subbywan2006-12-13 11:01:49
                Just because something has some benefits by DesertRat662006-12-13 11:19:28
                  But just because it *MAY* have bad by subbywan2006-12-13 11:21:47
                    But I see it as the reverse... by jdelphiki2006-12-13 12:06:38
                      No, it doesn't hinder us at all. by subbywan2006-12-13 12:12:44
                        At what cost? by jdelphiki2006-12-13 12:26:46
                          "a huge intrusion on the rights and freedoms"? by Khaar2006-12-13 12:33:47
                            I explained... by jdelphiki2006-12-13 13:22:15
                              so then you're not against them having it, by subbywan2006-12-13 13:28:05
                                I'm quite against them having it... by jdelphiki2006-12-13 13:38:30
                                That's your responsibility. by subbywan2006-12-13 13:40:08
                                The problem is by MatthewDBA2006-12-13 13:41:28
                                That's true, to a degree. by subbywan2006-12-13 13:45:48
                                That's why... by jdelphiki 2006-12-13 15:12:36
...I prefer not to allow them the chance to exploit the collection of DNA to begin with. Two to six year election cycles are plenty of time to entrench an abused DNA collection program beyond the ability to back it out.

The cell phone GPS tracking chip is a perfect example. It's not been all that long since they started mandating the chip for all cell phones, but voting out of office the people who put the law into place will not undo or remove the entrenched program, even if we were determined to make it go away. Too much money already spent on it...too many plans for exploiting the technology.

                                Not only Disney, Verizon Wireless too. (n/t) by shorty822006-12-13 17:15:26
